Yes, we are using a P/Mac 6100/60 for offline analysis with CellQuest.
It is O/K in 16Mb RAM, but some users insist on running Cellquest & Canvas
together to cut & paste.
They wonder why they keep getting "low memory" problems....

We don't have any experience with PC emulation, or dual processor Mac/Win
operation.
We have NOT tried data acquisition with it, and don't intend to at this
point.

We are also running CellQuest for offline analysis on a Mac IIci!!!
With 17Mb RAM it is quite usable, though not blindingly fast.

Joseph.
